WILMINGTON, Delaware. (Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Joe Biden named several women to his top economic policy team on Monday, including former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen as Treasury secretary nominee, setting the stage for diversity and a focus on recovery from the pandemic.
The advisers, several of whom would need to be approved by the U.S. Senate, come from liberal research organizations and worked in previous Democratic administrations.
Their aim will be to set policies that can help people and businesses recover from the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed nearly 267,000 people in the United States and cost millions of jobs.
Biden is expected to formally introduce the new economic team members on Tuesday, the transition team said.
Arizona and Wisconsin on Monday certified Biden as the winner in each state, further undermining President Donald Trump's attempts to dispute his loss to Biden in the Nov 3 election by making unsubstantiated claims of fraud.
The confirmation of vote counts is usually a mere formality but has taken on added significance this year in the face of Trump's baseless allegations that the election was "rigged" in Biden's favor.
Most of the battleground states that Biden won, including Pennsylvania and Georgia, previously certified their results. Together with the results from states where the outcome is not in dispute, Biden has secured enough votes in the state-by-state Electoral College to win the presidency.
